Visible landmarks in the sunlit grid-plan town include the Cushman Block, on Sixth (6th, Alpine) Street; the schoolhouse, on Taos Street; the tower of the Alpine Hose Company No. 2 firehouse on Fifth Street; Grace Episcopal Church, the Presbyterian Church, and the Methodist Church, all on Taos; and mine entrances. The rocky terrain of Griffith Mountain is on the left in the foreground; a man and a packed burro stand slightly down the mountain.
